Now that *is* interesting. Mostly I sing. In college I sang 7 hours of
rehersal time a week - 5 as tenor and 3 as first soprano. Back then my range
was tenor D to E-flat above high C, but I'm a lot older and my voice is way
out of shape. I took piano lessons when I was very young and can still plunk
out a simple tune with a little practice. And I write poetry. And my husband
is always asking me "am I gonna make the turn without hitting that other
car?" and I know the answer. <g>
BTW - if you ever get the chance to see Steve Jong perform, jump at it -
he's great!
